Interior handle for opening the door of a vehicle, hinged according to the vertical axis of rotation, in relation to a housing (1) built into the vehicle door. The handle comprises a lever (2) with a perimeter partition (4) perpendicular to the vertical plane, and an outer (5) frame that, in turn, has a perimeter partition (6) that exteriorally surrounds the lever (2). The outer contour of the lever (2) has a perimeter rim (7), on its face side, with an outer tapered wall (8) and the outer contour of the frame (5) has a perimeter groove (9), on its face side, with a tapered inner wall (10). The cone taper of said inner wall (10) of the frame (5) coincides with the cone taper of the outer wall (8) of the lever (2). The contour of the lever and frame have clipping points (11) and guide zones (12), arranged alternately.
